Welcome

I appreciate you stopping by my site! The main goal of Absolute Readiness is to share information that can help people to be more prepared for the unexpected things that life throws our way each day. No “Doom and Gloom” type of vibe or paranoia. Just solid advice to help folks stay calm, bite down on your mouthpiece, lower your chin and wade in when life starts reigning down blows on you. Since visitors here live in different geographical locations, all forms of natural disaster preparations will be covered as well. Being self-sufficient is a big part of being prepared for any hard times that come your way, so I will be featuring a lot of information to help people how learn to become less dependent on outside sources to take care of themselves. I will also be doing gear and equipment reviews to help readers decide what items might best serve their needs.

In order to make navigation of the site a bit easier, the following is a breakdown of how I’ve organized things:

BLOG: These are my own articles/ posts of information I feel may be useful to others. This content is my own perspectives and opinions.

WHAT IS “READINESS”: This is my own view of what “Readiness” means.

SURVIVAL BASICS: This section covers some of the basic elements of survival and is broken down into sub sections regarding Shelter, Water, Fire, Food and Equipment.

PERSONAL PROTECTION: Here I cover some of the basics of what a lot of people refer to as “Self-Defense”. There are sub sections regarding Hand to Hand Combat, Firearms, Bladed Weapons and Improvised Weapons.

HOME DEFENSE: Things you can do to prevent your home from being compromised and some ways to fortify/ defend it if it is. Right now there is a sub section regarding Social Media Security with more sub sections to come.

SELF SUFFICIENCY: This section covers some ways to become more self sufficient, with sub sections on Gardening, Aquaponics and Livestock. More sub sections regarding Off Grid Energy options will be coming as time allows.

SUPPLIERS: These are companies that I have dealt with and feel comfortable recommending to my visitors. These companies have not provided me with any gear or equipment, nor any other form of compensation. They’ve merely provided me with good customer service and fair prices on quality gear. If in the future these companies provide me with gear for reviews or purchase advertising with me, That will be fully disclosed to all. My reviews are just that, a review of the item so that consumers can make an informed decision as to whether or not that item would compliment their kit. I will make it abundantly clear if I RECOMMEND a product. Also, any items sent to me for review will not be kept by me, but will be offered to my visitors by way of giveaway contests, charitable auctions, etc.

ABOUT: Basically explains who I am and why I’m doing this.

CONTACT: Contact information if you have any questions or concerns.

AMAZON STORE: Running this site costs money and I am not a wealthy man… That being said, you will find items that I recommend on these pages. If you purchase them from my store it does not cost you any more than you would normally pay, but they pay me a small percentage on any items you purchase. If you click on the Amazon logo and go to Amazon.com, I will still get a percentage of any purchases. I would greatly appreciate any of you that shop on Amazon.com going through this page as it will help me to offset the cost of the site as well as gear, etc.

NEWS: Here I have set up news feeds from sources that I feel provide good information regarding Readiness, Preparations, Safety and Self-Sufficiency. So even if I haven’t got a new post up on the Blog, you can still come here and find a steady stream of information to help you keep you and your’s in a state of Readiness!

I appreciate all of you that support me in this endeavor! Please Follow, like and share Absolute Readiness on Facebook, Twitter and soon on Youtube…
